    Online bookings

    its people continuing to shop around - book something then see something cheaper What is also becoming a phenomenon is people book somewhere with say 48 hours free cancellation - then wait till 60 hours to go, look online to see if places with rooms have dropped their prices then cancel and...

    "What's the password?"

    try to leave it open? drives me full time nuts - we have a closer on front and back but it doesn't quite pull it onto the yale as otherwise the door slams -I mean seriously who in a decent sized town or above leaves their doors open?

    Where To Find A Great Business Plan and Timeline?

    Also depends a lot on your area ie in a large city you could probably buy a bed same say - very much out in the country you get it when they deliver there.

    Some people just don't read their emails

    we get this all the time - we have a ton of restaurants here so lulls them into a false sense of security no matter what I do - so they don't book, not realising they are competing with a local community which eats out A LOT as well as the other 3,000 people coming for the conference, event, new...

    Stealing or guests to take?

    PO's used to fill one from another - I personally see that as complete false economy ie paying the chamber maid to do so costs more money than buying more. I also agree its not hygienic - we use a refill hand wash and moisturiser which are refilled from a large bottle size ie 5 litre but the...

    "We love your website!"

    Or what one of the B&B coaches recommendes is write a guide to "your town" best places to see, eat etc and do it as a subscribe to our mailing list to receive it - is a 241 as people subscribe to get it and then are sold on the area by it.

    The stupid GPS maps idea of how to get to my home

    We have this - put in our postcode and often it brings up the street which is the way into the car park, but because they don't know that they then fight the GPS to make it pull them up at the front. Now we are trying to message every guest the night before they come saying the best postcode to...
